Okay, I think this is kindof cool. I was on hold FOREVER with one of the companies I do business with, so I got on the HCA-NA site, hit sailing links, clicked on HONG KONG and started looking at pictures. I saw a picture of a hobie 16, with Playa Del Sol sails with sail number 107915. Here is what I think is interesting. I live in Pigsknuckle Iowa, and have a new playa del sol, with sail number 107914. Far side of the world.

"Due to higher than usual call volume, your call will be answered in 14 minutes......." thats what the electro female voice from AXA Financial said before I took my around the world trip. It was better than twiddleing my thumbs. Anyway, how can that be explained?? Don't the Asian Hobie boats/sails/parts......come from AU or EU? |

Asia is a Hobie Cat USA / Australasia territory. Back when that sail was made it was just USA. All the sails made for USA / Australasia are made in the USA. |
